Oops

Ryan came into the bedroom last night and asked me if I had something to tell him. I couldn't even begin to guess where he was going with that line of questioning, so I told him to spit it out. He asked why there was a book about divorce on the kitchen table, and if there was something that I was not telling him. I still had no idea what he was talking about, so I headed to the kitchen to see a kids book on the table titled the following.

Standing on My Own Two Feet A Child's Affirmation of Love in the Midst of Divorce

It turns out this was the book that Ava picked out at the library the other day. I let the kids choose their own books. I wasn't doing any censoring other than making sure the book was in English and was age appropriate. I glanced at the book Ava was holding and saw the words "My Own Two Feet" and the image of the little boy. I thought it was a book about getting dressed by yourself. Oops! I guess I will be taking that one back, and doing a better job in the future of double checking what we are borrowing from the library. However, if you are ever looking for a children's book on divorce this does appear to be a good one for younger children.
